Wat Phayak Intharam

Panitch Road, Na Muang Subdistrict, Mueang Chachoengsao District.

Located in Ban Mai Subdistrict, evidence from an inscription on a silver plate found near the crack at the neck of the large stupa within the temple indicates that this temple was established during the reign of King Chulalongkorn (Rama V), by Nai Suea, also known as Phra Kriangkrai Krabuan Yutth. This ancient temple is believed to have been founded around the year 1881 (B.E. 2424), during the reign of King Rama V. The construction of the stupa began first, followed by the completion of the temple, which was later registered by the Fine Arts Department as an important historic site on September 23, 1982 (B.E. 2525). Within the temple, there are several notable features, including one large stupa, two smaller stupas, a footprint of the Buddha hall, an ubosot (ordination hall), and a bell tower. The large stupa also houses relics of the Buddha and the Arahants. According to elders from the past, this temple once flourished, but over time, it fell into disrepair due to a lack of restoration efforts. It wasn't until 1929 (B.E. 2472) that Phra Khru Arunrat (Phin) moved from Wat Samphatuan to become the abbot of this temple and initiated restoration work to restore it to the beautiful condition it is in today.
